He's Guatemalan, 25 years old and was arrested by ICE in a violent way: He had his teeth pulled out

A 25-year-old Guatemalan migrant named Marco Antonio Roblero Pérez was violently arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Doraville, Georgia, during a mass operation on July 18. The incident occurred at a gas station where he and three coworkers were intercepted by ICE officers. According to family members cited by Univision, the men were in a landscaping truck when they were surrounded by ICE agents. After attempting to flee on foot, the agents used Tasers, causing Roblero to fall face-first onto the pavement, resulting in facial fractures, broken teeth, and multiple bruises. Family members reported that officers then climbed on top of him, struck his face, and electrocuted him. He was taken to a nearby hospital, treated for his injuries, and released within 24 hours despite his severe condition. His relatives later visited a detention center and found him with blood on his face, crying, and describing pain in his face, loss of teeth, and difficulty breathing. The family claims that Roblero had lived in the United States for six years and held some form of immigration status.
